Bubba Watson and Justin Rose put on an amazing show of birdies in blustery conditions at Doral, Fla., making 17 between them while playing in the same group Friday at the Cadillac Championship.

Their playful duel was decided by Watson's eagle, giving him a 10-under 62 and a one-shot lead.

Watson belted a 3-iron that barely got over a palm tree, carried over the water into the wind and settled 6 feet away on the par-5 8th for the eagle putt that gave him the lead.

Watson was at 12-under 132 and will play again in the final group today with Rose, who had a 64.

Rory McIlroy, in his first event as No. 1 in the world, shot 69 and fell 10 shots back. Tiger Woods shot 67 and is seven back.

-- Matt Jones shot a 5-under 67 to open a three-stroke lead over George McNeill after two rounds of the PGA Tour event in Rio Grande, Puerto Rico.

No. 2 Stanford wins on walk-off

Justin Ringo blasted a first pitch fastball for a home run to give No. 2 Stanford a 4-2 win over No. 5 Rice in 10 innings at Sunken Diamond.

Stanford starter Mark Appel gave up a two-run single to JT Chargois in the first inning, but that would be all the damage the Owls (12-3) could muster against Appel, who struck out 14 over nine innings and retired his last 11 batters, finishing by striking out the side in the ninth, in his no-decision.

Stanford is 12-1. The teams finish the three-game series with games at 1 p.m. today and noon Sunday.

-- Cal also won in extra innings when Chris Paul's two-run single in the top of the 11th led to an 11-8 victory at Nebraska (8-5). The Bears (10-2) had 20 hits, including back-to-back home runs by Chad Bunting (three-run shot) and Mitch Delfino in the fifth.

-- Former A's outfielder Jose Canseco has been suspended from the Mexican league after allegedly refusing to undergo a doping test.

Mexican league president Plinio Escalante said refusing to take a doping test is treated the same as testing positive. Canseco told ESPN Deportes that he has a prescription for a testosterone-producing medicine and "can't live without it."

-- Padres CEO and 49 percent owner Jeff Moorad withdrew his application to finalize his investor group's purchase of the club in order to focus on getting MLB's approval for the team's new TV deal with Fox.

-- Orioles left fielder Nolan Reimold was taken to a hospital after being hit in the side of the head by a pitch from Rays right-hander Alex Cobb in the first inning of their spring training game. CT scans were negative.

-- Yankees reliever David Robertson has a bone bruise, and manager Joe Girardi said the All-Star should be ready to pitch by Opening Day. Robertson was hurt when he tripped on the stairs of his home in St. Petersburg.
